My name is Judith, I'm 17 years old and I come from a smaller city in Germany. Yeees, Germany. Wanna know why I'm here? Well...On the one hand I'm veeery interested in horses and I want to know how people in other countries live and work with these gorgeous animals and on the other hand I want to get my English-skills better. So please don't mind, if my posts are not perfect, I'll do my best, so that you are able to understand me. If you don't just ask. ;)
My hobbies are music [mainly Billy Talent, Peter Fox (You know him?) or house music], meeting friends and - of course - my lovely pony called Merlin. He is nearly 7 now and I got him when he was 3 years old and I was only 14. I train him on my own (mainly dressage), sometimes we jump and when the weather is good, we often go out into the nature. That is a lot of fun, I can tell you.
Hm...That's all for the moment. I would be happy if you had some questions so that I can get in contact with some new people
Yours Ponni :)

Thank you.
well, Billy Talent are sooo great & Ben is so hot :D
got a ticket for their concert in november '09, but that day i was ill. argh. :(

i think for foreigner german is a very difficult language b/c of the grammer and the thousands of exceptions in it. glad to have it as my mother tongue. :P
what can you say in german? i'd like to know :)

Welcome to HF. :) Your English is pretty good, so not to worry. My father was born in Germany and most of that side of the family is currently living there, but I am still learning the language myself. It *is* difficult but very beautiful, I think.

Your pony is beautiful! And no worries about your english, you are doing very well! I used to spend alot of time with one of my more distant reletives who speaks German when I was little, but I have forgotten what I used to know. :) His last name is Groeschell. (I think I spelled that right. ) Anyway, Welcome to the forum!

I'm very amazed of how many of you can speak a little german!

Never thought so much of you have something to do with it =)

I'm also happy to have german as my mother tongue because I think it's very very difficult to learn it.
But that's what everyone of you already said ;)
